Migrate unmanaged clients from SAV 7.6 to 9

Hi Folks,

a quick question for the board...

I have SEC 4.0 and am migrating my Windows domain clients from SAV 7.6 to 9, no problem.

I also have many unmanaged non-domain (student) clients, which update via http from a CID on the same server.  What would be the best way to get these clients migrated from SAV 7 to 9?   I remember using ExportConfig many years ago, and wondered if this is still in use with the shiny new versions of Sophos?

Thanks all.

  • Well, seem to have hit a little snag with this.

    I exported the new policy, dropped it into the current CID's 'sau' folder and ran configCID to finish.  All went fine and the web client then updated from SAV 7.6 to 9, with a reboot requested on the way.

    Just checking the client's update log and it's reporting an error...

    Download of SAVXP failed from [our web server] / CIDs / S000 / SAVSCFXP

    and the client is actually updatng from the secondary server (Sophos).

    I thought maybe I had set the details wrongly in the new policy, but the client says it is "Downloading product Sophos AutoUpdate" from the same URL without any problem, so it can obviously connect to the CID.

    Just wondered if anyone else had seen this problem?

    Thanks All.
